Yea, that's a big jump. The only people here who use them that high is people who own the old lever action big bore rifles. They use the high rise mounts so they can use either the iron sights at close range or the scope at longer ranges. It's blasphemy to me to scope a lever action though. :)

That's a technical term I'm not familiar with. :)

Yes they do. You wont be able to zero it at 10 yards...too close and probably not enough adjustment in the scope. With high rise scope mounts I zero at 200 yards with my .270 Remington. At 100 yards it's an inch high, and at 0-50 yards it's the height above the bore to the scope center...

Lock picking is 99% feel. I had a bag of old locks that I used to practice on. 3 or 4 different styles. I'd sit in front of the television and pick each one 10 or 15 times a night when I watched the TV. After a while you get into a zone and can feel when the lock is about to be defeated. I work...

I'm a self taught locksmith. Not good enough to own my own business mind you, but good enough to pick 80% of the locks out there to include tubular and number dialed locks. I pick locks on a regular basis in my job and it has become one of my better well used self taught skills. There is tons...

You know why I carry a .45? Cause they don't make a .46 :) Seriously though Giovanni...it doesn't take long at all to get used to the .45. The 9mm round is a high pressure round so the felt recoil is sharper. The .45 does have more recoil but it is a gentler "push" and is quite manageable...

I carry a Colt 1911 on duty. The weight of the Colt (or its clones) negate a lot of the recoil. The Glock 45 cal used to be issued at my agency but it was replaced with the .40 cal due to the fact that the grip on the .45 is too large for most people and was causing some malfunctions due to...

Ok. I figured. Go to the forum, introduce yourself, then ask about locating a trainer. Anyone suggested is usually someone you can trust. The members there are pretty straightforward so if a shite trainer is recommended someone will point that out. Try to get one of the many trainers that are...

Go to Login Required | Protection K9 UK This is a UK based board and there are some great trainers on there. I know because I'm the administrator of that forum and have been there since day one. :) Just out of curiosity...if this is a police K9 washout, did he not get lots of obedience...

The Discovery Channel has deep pockets. Don't let em low ball you. You got what they need for the best quality and are the sole source. I'd say you hold all the cards. Good luck.

Hah! At least you have running water. Our old hunting camp in Vidalia was an old homestead. We used battery power and barrels of water. For a real bath we'd go to the Withlacoochie river with a towel and a bar of soap. Ah, good times. Nothing like being off the grid to "ground" a person. :) I...

Name and shame. Spread the wealth and give everyone a crack at the guy. :)

Isn't photoshop wonderful?

Old man winter is fixing to camp on your doorstep DS. What's that? I hear him knocking on your door now. :) Cold in Florida now too, believe it or not.

My son pulled that shit on my wife one day and didn't know I was standing right behind him. I bitch slapped him so hard his ears rang for two days. He had more respect after that. Well, at least he looked behind himself before trying it again. Great kid otherwise. Turning out to be a good one.

I would have had so much fun with that one. Too bad you couldn't attach a virus to it as well.

Should of clarified. They have him well trained. :)

Mali's can be very social, or dog aggressive. Depends on the breeding and rearing. The Malinois is not the be all, end all of working dogs. Unfortunately their popularity is bringing back yard breeders out of the wood work and the destruction of the true working breed is being watered down by...

This is my experience as well. Many of the "Homeless Vets" are not vets at all. They tell people this to get hand outs. Now, there might be quite a few who did their minimum in the armed forces years ago but are not homeless due to unable to meld back into society because of PTSD or whatever...

I got to watch my personal protection dog react to an Oppossum that was playing dead. It really works for those critters. He's still alive. You could see the confusion running through the dogs' head. LOL
